The Area

The shape of Manningham tells the story of its past if you know where to look!

Also in this section...

Manningham is positioned in a wedge shaped ridge to the northwest of the city centre, in close proximity to the city centre. The area showcases natural green space, architectural beauty and is well connected to the city and wider district. Manningham is home to five conservation areas and a large number of listed buildings, which shows off its successful and wealthy past. The area is also home to several attractions which draw visitors from afar - such as Bradford City Football club, Lister Park - considered one of the best parks in Britain and the Carlisle Business Centre - a hotbed of entrepreneurial activity driving business growth and unity in the area.

Time

Seeing is believing. Community, businesses, services and onlookers will respond to further tangible, visible signals of confidence. The time is right for additional image building investments.
